Whenever one company buys another, every product line, every research project, and every employee is ultimately in play. …
The IT industry is at the doorstep of the long-awaited exascale era, which promises massive systems that can run at least one exaflops, or a quintillion (a billion billion) calculations per second, at 64-bit precision and a lot more than that at lower precision and even more using low-precision integer data pumped through their vector and matrix engines. …
It may have taken the better part of a decade, but the Itanium platform has yielded the kinds of profits that Hewlett Packard Enterprise long sought and rarely attained. …
Hold on a second. Nvidia’s sales of chips and systems to supercomputer centers are not as big as we might be thinking. …
Paid Post Intel has been at the forefront of democratizing high performance computing (HPC) for the past three decades, and the HPC leader is taking its efforts up several more notches with the Aurora exascale HPC and AI supercomputer being designed and built by Intel and Hewlett Packard Enterprise for Argonne National Laboratory. …
Let’s just cut right to the chase scene. The latest Top500 ranking of supercomputers, announced today at the SC21 supercomputing conference being held in St Louis, needed the excitement of an actual 1 exaflops sustained performance machine running the High Performance Linpack benchmark at 64-bit precision. …
Intel has spent the past nine months reorganizing itself in the wake of Pat Gelsinger becoming its chief executive officer in January, including new groups and divisions and new managers for them that were revealed in June. …
While we are big fans of laissez faire capitalism like that of the United States and sometimes Europe — right up to the point where monopolies naturally form and therefore competition essentially stops, and thus monopolists need to be regulated in some fashion to promote the common good as well as their own profits — we also see the benefits that accrue from a command economy like that which China has built over the past four decades. …
Artificial intelligence is taking center stage in the IT industry, fueled by the massive growth in the data being generated and the increasing need in HPC and mainstream enterprises for capabilities ranging from analytics and automation. …
